Product Features
Technical Overview
Engineered around PCI Express NVMe architecture, the T7 achieves sequential read speeds up to 1050 MB/s and write speeds up to 1000 MB/s. This performance is enabled by the USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C host interface, which supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gbps while maintaining backward compatibility with older USB standards.
The drive utilizes advanced NAND flash technology for consistent performance and energy efficiency. Hardware-based 256-bit AES encryption operates independently of the host system, providing robust security without impacting transfer speeds. The drive does not include wireless LAN connectivity, focusing instead on wired reliability and speed.
Relevant factors for this section include Storage Capacity, Encryption Standard, Maximum Read Transfer Rate, Maximum Write Transfer Rate. When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.
